Rebirth Into My Second Chance

I couldn't tell if it was my parents watching over me from the heavens, but somehow, in my past life, Max uncovered the truth about my untimely demise. In this life, Max took me under his wing as a student and saved my life.

After wolfing down the chicken soup, I glanced at the clock and realized I was running late for work. In a dash, I slipped into my shoes, grabbed my bag, and bolted for the elevator. For some reason, I felt unusually full. It seemed Max had already left for work. After arriving at the hospital, a nurse said, "Dr. Floyd, Dr. Hilton asked you to prep for surgery. You'll be assisting him in half an hour."

Eating a full breakfast was his way of making sure I was ready to stand by his side during surgery, remembering how I nearly fainted from hunger the last time we were in for hours.

"Got it," I replied.

"Oh, and Dr. Hilton said to remind you to eat breakfast so we don't have a repeat of last time's mishap." the nurse added with a sympathetic look, oblivious to the fact that I relished the moments spent beside him at the operating table. I replied, "It's fine."

"This surgery is for a criminal. I heard he assaulted a woman last night. Mr. Collins had him in custody when they got into a car crash. It was on Mr. Collins' way back to the station that he found the guy had lost a lot of blood and suffered multiple fractures, and another officer lost his life because of it. What a shame. Since he's a major suspect, we have no choice but to operate and see if we can save him. However, even if we do, he'll likely become paralyzed. Plus, his tongue was gone, and it looked deliberate. Dr. Hilton believes it was an intentional act."

My smile instantly faded. "The criminal, Daniel?"
